To this day, the best sweet I have ever eaten! Cream cheese cake with fruit sauce

The cafe occaisionally hosts local and national pianists and violinists for concerts

The outdoor terrace offers great views of Mt Yotei

The berries used for sweet dishes are grown in the garden!

Mozart is open all year round and is the perfect place to enjoy a meal by the fire in winter

The Mozart Cafe and Restaurant located in Izumikyo Village is a charming place to enjoy locally sourced produce. You're bound to be amazed at the quality of food at this cafe & restaurant and be warned, you must get in quickly because most of the local favorites sell out quite fast. I wasn't quick enough as Shepherd's pie was sold out, so instead, my ridiculously huge sweet-tooth got the better of me and I opted for a cream cheese cake with fruit sauce. Akiko-san told me that the raspberries and black berries were picked that morning, and proceeded to usher me over and show me the bush they were growing from once I had finished. Mozart is open Wednesday ~ Sunday, 10:00 ~ 20:30 and is a 3 minutes drive from Hirafu Village on State Hwy 343. You can view their menu here.
